Ein wuchtiges Drama. Ein schwarz-weißer Holzschnitt, der die Verhältnisse der Grubenarbeiter in Nordfrankreich schonungslos aufzeigt. Der zeigt, dass selbst unter krassesten Verhältnissen die Leidenschaften der Menschen ihr Leben bestimmen. Émile Zolas "Germinal" ist ein Meisterwerk des Naturalismus und ein eindrucksvolles Zeugnis der sozialen Missstände im Frankreich des 19. Jahrhunderts. Der Roman, der 1885 veröffentlicht wurde, schildert den harten Alltag der Bergarbeiter in Nordfrankreich und ihre verzweifelten Versuche, gegen die unmenschlichen Arbeitsbedingungen aufzubegehren.
